How to Transfer Photos from Google Photos to Google Gallery
Admin
Today’s smartphones have become multifunctional devices, and one of their most popular uses is photography.
Many people prefer capturing moments with their smartphones because modern smartphone cameras are highly capable and deliver impressive results.
In addition to powerful camera features, users also have various options for storing photos, including cloud backups.
A few years ago, Google introduced the Auto Backup feature in Google Photos.
Auto Backup allows users to upload photos and videos quickly and easily to the cloud directly from an Android device.
However, this feature has one limitation: users can only store up to 15GB of photos and videos for free.
Once the cloud storage reaches 15GB, users can no longer use Auto Backup.
While upgrading to a Google One plan can provide more storage, many users simply consider this option unnecessary.
If you find yourself in this situation, you can store and manage your photos and videos directly on your smartphone using Google Gallery.
According to GizChina (Thursday, February 22, 2024), Google Gallery has become a popular alternative for storing images and videos and is now one of the best gallery apps available on the Google Play Store.
How to Transfer Photos from Google Photos to Google Gallery
If you want to make your photos accessible offline in Google Gallery, follow these steps:
-
Open the Google Photos app on your smartphone.
-
Make sure you’re logged in to the same Google account where your photos are stored.
-
Once the app is open, you will see all the images saved in Google Photos.
-
Select the photo you want to download to Google Gallery, tap the three vertical dots in the top-right corner, and choose Download.

To download multiple photos, select and hold several images, then tap the Download button.

After a moment, all downloaded photos will appear in Google Gallery. You can manage them directly through the Google Gallery app.
Downloaded photos can also be accessed using your file manager.

How to Transfer Photos from Google Photos to a PC
